“I felt that he will quit today but this doesn’t mean we’ll accept it. We don’t agree with his resignation at the moment but we can’t keep him against his will. I will talk to him and with the staff. We want to finish this kind of discussions. It’s obvious that there will be an extra pressure in the team. It’s very clear that Leo’s gesture was very bad. We don’t accept. Let’s not forget the performance. As a manager he’s a 10.” – Cornel Sfaiter, FC Botosani president.

Grozavu is the manager of FC Botosani for the third time in the last 10 years. He was previously appointed in 2007 and 2014.
